Interviewed Monday by Kennedy at Fox Business, Ron Paul challenged the contention that the United States government was acting in accord with good intentions in attacking Syria last week. Instead, Paul suggests a big motivation was generating profit for the military-industrial complex. Discussing the reason for the attack, the Ron Paul Institute Chairman and former presidential candidate concludes, I think the only interest that has been involved here is to prop up the province of the military-industrial complex. <\/p>\n
Paul elaborates that the reason for the attack has nothing to do with concern about the Syria governments purported use of chemical weapons to kill innocent people, given that the US has long been, and continues to be, in the practice of killing innocent people. <\/p>\n
Paul also suggests in the interview that neoconservatives influence US actions in regard to Syria. Many people had hoped that President Donald Trumps America First emphasis would cause a move away from military intervention against governments overseas. However, it appears that the influence of people supporting such intervention, including neoconservatives, continues strong in the Trump administration. While Paul says that the neoconservatives politically are winning, he proceeds to note that, at the same time, he believes that the American people are still with us who believe that this war is absolutely unnecessary. <\/p>\n
